First things first; check the article at the link below - then return and share your creativity.

Your photo above evokes a tremendous sense of pathos.
The linked article is a timely match for the presently active article about UFOs.
Arvo.. just went for a walk along the beach...tad chilly but a woman was in swimming.. didn't have a wet suit on and it's 15oC..got to be keen..🥶🥶
You should take a stroll along St.Kilda / Port Melbourne beaches. Never fail to see plenty of "icebergs", and there is a club, when they're out could be 50 of them. Brrrrrrrrrrr
Yes they have them here too..every morning at 6am they meet, hail, rain and wind..pass..🥶🥶
LOL. That puts her at odds with the women swimming at Miami Beach these days where the ocean is 101 F.
The advent of Spring causes the effect of beauty to become exposed to the eye.
MIST can cause the effect of altering reality....
...or the effect of indicating distance...
Nice.
A couple of sunsets from Stone Creek, Ocala FL.
The usual WOW!
My 10g shallow office tank is finally done. I hope. Overall I think it looks pretty good, but not all the plants survived and a couple are still struggling so this just may be a work in progress. The information for keeping bare root plants in water like this is sketchy at best. A lot of aquarists do use the pothos and monstera, but after that its almost a trial and error thing. I've seen some of the asparagus fern in other setups, but never long term and things like the poka-a-dot plant say not to keep the root wet. The poka-a-dot plant seems to be doing really really well. So we'll see how this holds up long term.
Day 26...
That is just stunning, EG.
As long as it holds up I'll be happy.
That turned out fantastic.
Looking very tropical forest.

Very nice, G.
Thanks, Kavika
I have often pointed out "life imitating art" when it came to the movies, and you've posted a perfect example of it relating to visual art.
This sighting was a thrill. Three Roseate Spoonbills (pink) were feeding in one of our lakes. You don't see them here very often, usually closer to the coast, but here they are and have been around for a couple of days.
They are beautiful.
Not the best of photos, G but their color was spectular and when they spread their wings it was all pink underneath.
It would be great to see them in the wild. You are very lucky to have them around, even if only occasionally.
Seeing them was a surprise, for sure. We have enormous and varied flocks of birds, everything from bald eagles to crows, and now we have added the Spoonbill. Hope they stick around or come back from time to time.
In Philly, most of us are partial to Eagles.

Of course cities like Toronto, Baltimore and St. Louis have similar partiality.
Fantastic.
It's hot, damn hot. So hot that I think my shorts are on fire.
Thanks to all; see you Thursday night.
